Research Interests
Linda Huang's research focuses on meiosis, a process which is essential for the creation of gametes, which are sperm and eggs in humans and spores in yeast. The work in her laboratory uses sporulation in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as a model to study the regulation meiosis and how the cellular events that occur during gametogenesis are coordinated.
